The final #MakerAdvent is live!
Join me as I connect up and write code for the new Commodore 64 Ultimate's user port accessory. I show you how to use BASIC to control an LED, because as we all know, once we know how to do this, we can do anything with electronics!
Thanks for watching, happy holidays!

Where's the final #MakerAdvent ? Well, Santa just dropped off a parcel and completely flipped my scheduled videos. It will be out later today!

The penultimate day of #MakerAdvent 2025 and today I show you how I write code for a PSION 3A via my Windows XP virtual machine and a janky USB to serial setup! I do love the old PSION machines!

Today on #MakerAdvent I go Back to BASICs (pun intended) and create an application to show and image and play audio using QB64 Phoenix Edition, a modern day version of QBASIC.
It's a great BASIC editor and something that I could spend hours tinkinering with.
Have fun!

Today on #MakerAdvent I am "Cleared Hot" to take a day off, so join me as I fly an Apache AH-64A attack helicopter gunship. I bought Cleared Hot the other day on Steam for £12 and it is proving to be a fun distraction.

It’s a mark of a challenging year when I’ve been unable to watch #MakerAdvent and now I’ll have to binge watch 20 episodes at once!

Day 20 of #MakerAdvent, already? Wow. Today I am taking apart my USB powered vacuum cleaner to fix it, because now it really does suck!

Today on #MakerAdvent I've got a plethora of soldering irons to show you!
As is tradition each #MakerAdvent, I talk soldering irons, because I have far too many!
From £7 USB soldering iron, to the mighty, and expensive £280 iFixit soldering iron hub. They're all on show for your amusement.

Bit of a delay with today's #MakerAdvent as I had time sensitive jobs to do this morning. So the episode will be out later this afternoon UK time.

Today on day 18 of #MakerAdvent I use @adafruit wonderful #circuitpython to create an MP3 player hidden inside a Christmas present. The best part, it activates using a magnetic switch, to surprise the receiver.
